For some reason I went to a panel discussion sponsored by Palm Springs Modernism Week at the Ace Hotel with Frances Anderton and Moby. And the reason turned out to be Frances Anderton. She scares me a bit (which probably keeps me listening to her DnA, Design & Architecture show on KCRW.) She gave me a headmaster glance after this first image of Moby was taken, and I quickly took my seat.

But it turns out she is just such a lovely person. She brings an intelligent and fun voice to Architecture.

The discussion hinged on the room offering credibility to what Anderton says is the world of architecture having a "Moby moment".

He lives in a Lautner guest house in back of a neo-Norman Castle overlooking Lake Hollywood.
